In this accessible introduction to the artist, art historian Uwe M. Schneede tells the story of how Modersohn-Becker became one of the most important artists of the modern movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSchneede conducts a thorough visual analysis of Modersohn-Becker's paintings, examining how she painted women, including herself, in a way that had not been seen before and unpacking why her images have remained so significant. This study is paired with a revealing discussion of the artist's short life, from her early classes at the Association of Berlin Women Artists to creating the first-known female nude self-portraits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing rarely seen images from Modersohn-Becker's archive, as well as fascinating insight into her life and work, \u003cem\u003ePaula Modersohn-Becker\u003c\/em\u003e presents a welcome opportunity to get to know this key modern artist. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500025628\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240","brand":"Uwe M.
